NASA F-15 Flights Validate Supersonic Tools for X-59 Quiet Flight Quesst Mission
NASA’s twin F-15 jets validated critical tools for the X-59 quiet supersonic aircraft, confirming precision systems like shock-sensing probes, schlieren imaging, and ALIGNS navigation during May flights over the Mojave Desert. The successful tests mark a key step in NASA’s Quesst mission, which aims to enable quieter, faster commercial air trav...

NASA’s X-59 Jet Conducts Afterburner Test for Supersonic Flight Performance
NASA’s X-59, part of the Quiet SuperSonic Technology (Quesst) programme, has successfully completed afterburner tests, bringing it closer to achieving quieter supersonic flight. Built by Lockheed Martin, the X-59 is designed to break the sound barrier without generating the disruptive sonic booms typically associated with supersonic travel. The r...

NASA's X-59 Supersonic Jet Completes Initial Engine Tests, First Flight Approaching
NASA’s X-59 quiet supersonic jet has passed initial engine testing, bringing it closer to its anticipated first flight. Developed at Lockheed Martin’s Skunk Works, the X-59 aims to break the sound barrier without creating disruptive sonic booms, featuring a unique elongated nose and an external vision system. This research will gather public re...
